The EU-funded 'Systems biology of lipids metabolism' (SBLIME) project was initiated
to characterise and investigate the molecular mechanisms of sphingolipids.
Researchers employed a systems biology approach along with high-resolution
chromatography and mass spectrometry for the analysis of global and lipid
metabolism as well as biosynthesis pathways.
Project outcomes have laid the groundwork for further studies on mechanisms of lipid
metabolism, interactions and function with important implications for medicine.
Techniques developed within this study could also be adapted by other research
groups in the biotechnology sector.
